De Guate founder Michelle Moore grew up in Guatemala and returns to Guatemala regularly, where she meets with the women who create the unique jewelry, guiding them to combine their native skills, and centuries of culture and history with colors and designs that appeal to American consumers. In bringing handcrafted Guatemalan products to American consumers, de Guate High Design Handicrafts is building a successful wholesale business providing quality products at affordable prices while helping Guatemalan craftspeople.

It was a pleasure to work with them creating a sales book for their Fall line, as well as some postcards and signage for a trade show where she hoped to expand their market reach. I am still hoping to barter some work for a few of their stunning necklaces…

Inspire International’s mission is to create caring communities of hope that teach the Word of God, promote literacy, alleviate poverty and bring hope. They partner with national organizations, mission agencies, denominations and local churches in India to address the needs—both spiritual and physical—of local people groups. Inspire International works to equip Christian leaders, churches and organizations in the Indian subcontinent to serve indigenous Christians as well as unreached peoples. They teach adults how to read and write, uplift the poor, and provide children access to education.

Over a decade ago the Pastor who leads this ministry saw a brochure I had designed for another client and contacted us about doing some work for them as well. Capturing the colors, textures and spirit of the people the ministry serves was simply a joy. Since then, David Singh has been one of the most influential figures in our lives, and we were even able to participate in a teaching trip to his original ministry location in India.

I had enjoyed designing for Inspire International, but to have the opportunity to visit the people whose lives were being touched by the ministries they provide was truly life changing. Sometimes there are times when the lines between client, pastor, friend and mentor blend a bit and in this case that has made our lives so much richer.

Seth has shared the stage with the likes of Kobe Byrant, LeBron James, Dwayne Wade, and other NBA AllStars! He has appeared on ESPN, BET, TNT, MSNBC, Comedy Central and more. Seth has worked with Universal Studios, NBA, The Harlem Globetrotters, and The US Department of Education.

He is a long time friend from shared ministries in the City of Richmond, and we were delighted to have the opportunity to create a new site for him to help promote himself for speaking engagements to inspire youth across the country.

A little about me

My name is Rachel. Good to meet you. I like caramel coffee, the way patterns of light or color or ideas fit together, and mornings at the ocean. Dislikes include: political ads, conspicuous wealth and mornings in general. Together, my husband Buddy and I are daily challenged and blessed as we raise two children and run one business: By His Designs.Read more About me
